Rhinestone cowboy

Part way thru my saturday ride I decided to go for 30, it was tiring tough 30 but made it! Found my favorite tortoise on goat. I think it needs a name since it's home must be nearby and seen it 3 or so times now.

Paddle Board Canyon Lake

Great time on the water with the family, everyone did great on our first paddleboard adventure. It was brutally hot so not much paddling, more swimming which felt really good. It was very pretty despite the dead fish and gross water.

Long road

Lots of summer left, gone into hibernation mode and not loving it.

It's pretty

I am still surprised for how dry it is it still doesn't look very dreary.

Overcasted

A rare day of overcast, it would be nice if we had more of this.

Ironflat hike

It happened again, climbed up that steep beautiful mountain. Was in good company with Brant and enjoyed it. Very friendly couple of critters on the top, they were coming right up to our hands begging for food.

Old school hawes ritual

Regular ol Tuesday old hawes stroll, early mornings aren't bad.

That guy gets it

Two riders were coming uphill, I pulled off, so did the other gentleman as an enbiker plows on by us and he shook his head and I said Yup, I agree. Ebikes are taking over, to each their own, stil can't help but feel like they're all lazy but thats just my opinion and you know what they say about opinions......

Welp.....

Back in the filthy desert, can't say I am very pleased, but grateful for the bike and trails, june is a hard month, the heat hits full force, going to try do have a better attitude about it this year.

Farrington w brother

Some more farrington! My brother joined in and found some other trails and awesome views! A thunderstorm rolled in at the end and it was the icing on the cake! so so so awesome!

Farrington Woods

Another hefty drive to the CT/NY border to farrington. Never rode here before so it was all new to me, did a pre ride on a nice cloudy morning before my brother wold join me. I head home today which is a big bummer but is what it is. Great trails, alot of work, I did not have alot of energy in the tank but I got thru it.

Case of awesome

Up to my favorite place, didn't get any takers to join me so it was just me and a mean rats nest of trails to figure out. Started off just riding and not bothering with the map, then I had to at soem point. So many new trails takes alot to figure out but I LOVE IT!

Brohouse

Joined up with my brother, we both suffered on this one!

Rockhouse

First in line for a ride was rockhouse, tired as heck but firmly set on early ride before my brother joins me. Hasn't changed much, still figuring out the better directions. Did I say I love CT riding!
